No - but I get people with the same avatar confused.To be honest, until I saw this tread I had the default Ouroboros one, but I can certainly see why some people might get a touch confused.

✭✭✭No - but I get people with the same avatar confused.Confused might not be the best word, exactly, but I do sometimes accidentally associate comments with the wrong person in my mind if they have they same avatar and are active in the same posts frequently.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭No - but I get people with the same avatar confused.There is a limited number of avatars, so no.
But I do get briefly confused sometimes when I see an avatar I correlate with a specific user is someone else. Or when I'm trying to catch up on a discussion looking for my latest post only to get distracted by someone who uses the same avatar. Or when an user I'm familiar with has suddenly changed theirs. Speaking of which, I just changed mine...Wonder if I'll confuse someone.[Lie] Of course! I don't even worship Daedra!1 -
Aelorin✭✭✭✭✭No - but I get people with the same avatar confused.It bothers me more that people can get a 'troll' avatar.
Often you do not know if they just like trolls, or if they are trolls themselves...

✭✭✭✭✭Who cares?There aren’t many options, so of course lots of people have the same avatar.

yRaven✭✭✭✭Who cares?This is a poll to encourage ZOS to let us upload custom avatars.

✭✭✭✭✭Who cares?I'm not sure why can't we use custom avatars. Most game forums allow it, and if someone uploads something inappropriate, then the mods can just remove it, just like with regular threads and posts.Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason

Cheezits94✭✭✭✭✭No, but whenever I see the blue fairy-thing avatar OP uses somewhere, especially as the opening post of a thread, I immediately fear a banned former class rep is back at it with the spam of topics and gibberish posts.
If you can't even spell sets, locations and items, you probably have no clue what you even are talking about.

✭✭Who cares?Avatars are limited so any "good" ones will get used. Custom avatars would be nice in theory, dickswastikas in practice.0 -
ShellaSunshine✭✭✭NoThere are limited choices and just because you chose a specific avatar doesn't mean no one else can have that same avatar.
If it really bothers you this much, you might need to reflect on your life and your priorities.0 -

The league of unkempt skeletal ostriches isn't that big, so whenever I see a posting by another unkempt skeletal ostrich I'm all '...???'.

Yeah, I'm the same way. I get used to seeing posts by some regulars and associate the avatar with them. Then I'll see that same avatar elsewhere and momentarily think it's the same person but with a totally different viewpoint. It's only confusing for a moment.0
